Shika no Tône (Kinko Ryû) Justin Senryu - Rodrigo Rodriguez

This is one of the most famous Kinko Ryu Honkyoku pieces. In addition, the Japanese Ministry of Education decided to use this piece in their musical textbooks. “Shika No Tohne“ describes a scene in deep autumn when the voice of the male deer calls for his female deer mates. And this type of descriptive scene has been used in poetic material since the time of the “Kokin Washu“ (an ancient poetry anthology).
